This study deals with the synthesis of selected attributes of public transport accessibility. The aim is to present a new method of multi-criteria analysis. As the research area, the city of Cracow has been chosen. The GTFS (General Transit Feed Specification) system has been used to obtain traffic data for buses and trams within the city‘s transport company (MPK Krakow). The analysis itself consists of 4 main accessibility indicators (walking time to each stop, number of lines, directions, and connections from each stop). The problem of exceeding the stops accessibility beyond the administrative border of Cracow has been solved by using a 500 m wide buffer zone around the city. To connect the individual layers of indicators into a multicriteria analysis, the Voronoi diagram function has been applied. The results of the method are presented in the form of synthetic maps of transport accessibility for each bus and tram stop in Cracow. Together with the synthetic accessibility maps, an index of a stop importance has been created as well, which consists of the sum of the mean percentages from 3 indicators (number of lines, directions, connections). The synthetic method used and acquired detailed values not only for the city of Cracow as a whole, but also its individual parts make it possible to provide a comprehensive picture of accessibility by public transport. This multicriteria analysis can also be extended for a comparative study of selected cities.

A properly functioning public transport is one of the most important components of urban mobility for the population. Due to spatial inhomogeneity and overall socio-economic differences within a city, there are often considerable disproportions in the quality of transport services within its districts. Also, the city of Krakow is no exception in this case. For a comparison of public transport accessibility in 18 Krakow districts, 7 major quantitative and 5 minor indicators were created. These indicators include the most important characteristics of transport services such as accessibility, frequency, connectivity of connections, and ratios of tram public transport subsystem. The resulting values give a fairly comprehensive picture of the quality of the transport services. Overall higher values for most indicators occur in the central districts of the city. However, due to the complexity of the observed characteristics, it is possible to discover significant differences in the structure of individual indicators. Peripheral districts reach higher amplitudes, which means that in some aspect they have even better transport services than the city center. Yet, at the same time, we also find opposite extremes here, highly below-average values for most other indicators. A detailed analysis of the results provides a unique perspective on the disparities among districts. It can also serve for specific identification of strengths and weaknesses of transport services and its possible optimization.

W artykule przedstawiono zagadnienia mobilności osób z ograniczonymi możliwościami poruszania się (PRM – People with Reduced Mobility) oraz dostępności przestrzeni i transportu publicznego. Z powodu istniejących barier wiele osób codziennie napotyka na trudności w przemieszczaniu się. Aby je ograniczyć lub całkowicie zlikwidować, realizatorzy międzynarodowego projektu o akronimie ISEMOA – Wolna od barier i energooszczędna mobilność dla wszystkich (ISEMOA – Improving seamless energy-efficient mobility chains for all) opracowali i pilotażowo wdrożyli System Zarządzania Jakością ISEMOA, który służy poprawie dostępności zarówno przestrzeni publicznej, jak i transportu publicznego w gminach, miastach i regionach Europy.

The article presents the issues of PRM (People with Reduced Mobility) mobility as well as accessibility of public space and public transport. Due to the exeistence of bariers many people have difficulties in moving around on a daily basis. In order to minimize the bariers or eliminate them, the implementers of international project ISEMOA – Improving seamless energy-efficient mobility chains for all, have developed and implemented at pilot sites Quality Management Scheme ISEMOA, which aims at improvement of accessibility of public space and public transport in cities, municipalities and regions around Europe.
